June 19-25 is “Pollinator Week,” a time to spotlight the urgent issue of declining pollinator populations. Pollinator Week was originally created by Congress 10 years ago and has now grown into an international celebration of the valuable ecosystem services provided by the “B’s:” birds, butterflies, bees, bats and beetles.

CDFA highlighted concerns with declining bee populations in its Growing California video series. Here is “Blossom Buddies,” parts one and two.
